What is the difference between procure to pay and purchase to pay?

The key difference between procure to pay and purchase to pay, is that procure to pay encompasses the entire procurement process, including supplier selection and negotiations, while purchase to pay is focused specifically on the purchasing aspect of the process.

What does a purchase to pay software do?

Purchase-to-pay (P2P) software is designed to automate and streamline the entire procurement process, from requisition to payment. Some key functions are: requisition management, purchase order management, supplier management, invoice processing and reporting.

What is the difference between P2P and AP?

P2P and AP are two closely related, but distinct business processes, however P2P is a broader process that covers the entire procurement process, while AP is a more focused process that deals specifically with the processing of invoices.

Is purchase-to-pay part of the supply chain?

Yes, purchase-to-pay (P2P) is typically considered part of the supply chain process. Within the supply chain, the P2P process and procure to pay cycle typically falls under the procurement function, which is responsible for sourcing and acquiring the goods and services needed to support the organisation’s operations.

Does P2P mitigate fraud risk?

Purchase-to-pay (P2P) processes can help to mitigate fraud risk, but they do not eliminate it entirely. By introducing more rigorous controls and payment processes within supply chain management, P2P can help to reduce the likelihood of fraud occurring, as well as detecting it more quickly if it does occur.

How does P2P help with reporting KPIs?

P2P can help with KPIs such as: purchase order cycle time, invoice processing time, purchase order accuracy, invoice accuracy and spend analysis with an ERP system.

How do you implement purchase to pay?

Implementing a purchase-to-pay process typically involves several key steps including: 1) define requirements, 2) choose P2P software, 3) customise the solution, 4) train users, 5) test and deploy, 6) monitor and refine.
